Hello

Quick question to long-range shooters here. I am interested in building my next rifle in 300WSM and I need some data. I am particularly interested in AOL of a loaded cartridge using Berger 215-220 grain bullets (need this info to choose magazine size). As well if you have any reloading data to help me start I would greatly appreciate sharing them.
 
Code: 
Cartridge          : .300 WSM (CIP)
Bullet             : .308, 215, Berger Hybr #30429
Useable Case Capaci: 71.401 grain H2O = 4.636 cm³
Cartridge O.A.L. L6: [B]3.117 inch[/B] = 79.18 mm
Barrel Length      : 24.0 inch = 609.6 mm

Predicted Data for Indicated Charges of the Following Powders.
Matching Maximum Pressure: 62000 psi, or 427 MPa
or a maximum loading ratio or filling of 104 %
These calculations refer to your specified settings in QuickLOAD 'Cartridge Dimensions' window.
C A U T I O N : any load listed can result in a powder charge that falls below minimum suggested
loads or exceeds maximum suggested loads as presented in current handloading manuals. Understand
that all of the listed powders can be unsuitable for the given combination of cartridge, bullet
and gun. Actual load order can vary, depending upon lot-to-lot powder and component variations.
USE ONLY FOR COMPARISON !

132 loads produced a Loading Ratio below user-defined minimum of 80%. These powders have been skipped.
